Franz Kafka is definitely an anomaly in the history of world literature. As a master of literature, it is extremely rare that he is not the spokesman of his own country or nation, let alone "the conscience of the times" and so on. The contradiction and particularity of his identity doomed him to have no refuge: he was a subject of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, grew up in Prague, Czech Republic and worked as a clerk in an Italian insurance company. His mother tongue is German, and his blood is Jewish. He has kept a great distance from Jewish life, religion and customs all his life-"What do I have in common with Jews?" He said.
Therefore, the strong desire for eternity in his blood drives him to be alone in a heterogeneous world and fight against it hopelessly, just like K, a land surveyor in his works, who came to a mysterious and powerful castle through the snow one night, completely unaware of his fate: he devoted his life to it until the end of his life. In other words, loneliness is Kafka's destiny, and his longing for loneliness is like a bloodthirsty beast.
Kafka was engaged three times and divorced three times in his life. The fundamental reason is that Kafka is afraid that family life will destroy the loneliness on which his writing depends. In front of his beloved words, the marriage that ordinary people take for granted has no place at all, and he himself is just a willing victim of this ancient and great cause. From this point of view, his behavior of writing and constantly destroying his works transcends self-loathing and self-abuse and reaches the realm of great sincerity and courage; His humble, gloomy and fragmented life gained consistency and strength.
Kafka died of lung disease on June 3, 1924. In his will, he asked his best friend Max Broder to burn all his manuscripts. Broder didn't do that.
